Thank you all for your wonderful inputs.
- I was blown away by the redundancy of names in "100 years of solitude"." I just couldn't keep up w/ names and people. Otherwise, a classic read.
- Had eyes on "Eleven Minutes" but somehow the first impression from his very famous "The Alchemist" wasn't great.
On the non-fiction side, "Outliers" and "Predictably Irrational" are great books. Go beyond norm, put in ten thousand hours of hardwork and become an outlier - that's when you become successful.
Currently, dwelling on "The inheritance of loss" by Kiran Desai.
